5 At any point during the slideshow, click the thumbnail images.
The slideshow stops and shows the selected image.
6 Return to Edge Animate and select all the elements on the Timeline by choosing Select > All, or by pressing Ctrl+A
(Windows)/Command+A (Mac OS). Make sure none of the elements are locked.
7 Click and drag the last keyframe of the last animated element on the Timeline. Drag the keyframe to the left to
decrease the total amount of time of the slideshow.
As you decrease the length of time for all the animated elements, the labels also move proportionally, preserving
th
ei
r identification of what's displayed on the Stage. Return the total time of the composition to 0:10 seconds.
Adding visual feedback
Most interactive elements on the Web feature visual feedback, which is important to provide clues to the reader that the
particular item is interactive. For example, a simple hyperlink on a web page often will change color when you move
your mouse over it. A button will highlight when you move your mouse over it, and may appear depressed when you
click on it.
You can create these interactions with a combination of events and actions in Edge Animate. You’ll add these events
and
actions to the thumbnails for visual feedback next.
Adding the mouseover thumbnails
The first question you should ask is, what visual effect do you want to see when a user moves their mouse over the
thumbnail images? For this project, you’ll make the grayscale thumbnails become colorized, and a highlight appear
around the borders. The first step is to bring colorized versions of the thumbnails on to the Stage.
1 In the images folder in the Assets folder of the Library panel, you’ll find color versions of each of the five thumbnail
images, indicated by the _color appended to the file name.
2 Drag button1_color.jpg from the Library on to the Stage.
3 Use the Smart Guides to position the button1_color element at the upper-left corner, exactly on top of its grayscale
version. Its location should be at X=0, Y=0.
